[NEWS] Die So Fluid – Nightmares

Gothic rock band Die So Fluid have released the official music video for new track “Nightmares” from their latest album The Opposites Of Light. “It’s about a battle between good and evil, recognising and confronting a negative force and moving it on. It’s dark imagery lends itself to the horror themed video we created for it.” they explained.

Senses Fail has named their next album Pull The Thorns From Your Heart. According to frontman Buddy Nielsen, it is about “finding peace and love within yourself through the letting go of habitual patterns of emotional and physical self abuse, finding courage in vulnerability and surrendering to the idea that love is the path to liberation”.

The group is fronted by Tom DeLonge from Blink 182 and currently featuring Ilan Rubin from Lostprophets and Nine Inch Nails. The song is described as “a bit of a journey in and out of the many teeth of the music business — an industry that can be a sexy girl on one hand, but a vicious axe murderer on the other.”
